As Trump defies the Supreme Court and refuses to bring innocent father Kilmar Abrego Garcia back from El Salvador — it’s worth remembering his Czar of Hate Stephen Miller has always been viciously anti-immigrant, even in high school 👇🏽

🌀 The spiral continues: “China retaliates with an 84% tariff on US imports, accusing the White House of "bullying practices" — after Trump's 104% tariff on Beijing kicked in today…” #Trumpcession finance.yahoo.com/news/asian-m...

WATCH: Trump calls his presidency “the most successful 100 days in the history of our country” as the market craters 🤔

They fired Navy Vice Admiral Shoshana Chatfield—not because she couldn’t do the job, but because she wouldn’t hang up pictures of Trump and Hegseth. This ain’t about merit—it’s about ego.

Republicans used to say “undocumented immigrants don’t pay taxes.” Now the IRS is handing their tax data to DHS… So which is it? Seems like you’d have to pay taxes to even have tax data…

WATCH: Rep. Justin Jones honors Lynne McFarland— the 80yo woman who made national news when troopers carried her out of committee in protest of the cruel @SenBoWatson @WilliamLamberth bill to keep undocumented kids out of school.

he did this just *after* going to the funeral of an 8 year old girl. he walks away from where the hearse is idling and immediately starts hyping this stuff again. www.washingtonpost.com/health/2025/...

"His office leadership instructed appointees to act as servers for a multicourse meal. They dispatched a US Park Police helicopter for his personal transportation. On at least one occasion, a staffer was told to remake the cookies because the batch was subpar..." www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

‘Specialty drugs’ might be unique, but access should not be special - why? Needing a specialty medication shouldn’t mean jumping through hoops or facing unpredictable pricing. We believe access to life-changing medications should be simple, direct, and free from hidden fees! ➡️ costplusdrugs.com ⬅️

UPDATE: In the post Trump shared saying he’s “purposely” tanking the market, the video claimed Warren Buffett supports his tariffs… That’s a blatant lie 🤥 , of course — So Warren Buffett just put out a statement refuting it. www.cnbc.com/2025/04/04/b...

🔥 OBAMA: “IMAGINE IF I HAD DONE ANY OF THIS… I say this not on a partisan basis. This has to do with something more precious — who are we as a country, and what values do we stand for?” 🇺🇸

Mark Kelly: "This is not surprising. Here's a guy who told Americans to inject bleach into their bodies, who sent a mob to Capitol Hill. And now I think it's fair to say he stands out as singlehandedly destroying more wealth with his bad decisions than anybody else who has ever lived on this planet"

It's midnight in Washington, and in case you're catching up... So far tonight, Republicans have blocked amendments that would: – Remove tariffs hurting families – Protect disaster response and recovery - Secure Social Security benefits - Preserve federal lands (Thread 🧵)

Senator Jim Banks (R) isn’t sorry he told a fired federal worker “he probably deserved it”. He went on to say the worker was “complaining about losing a left-wing woke job in the federal government that should have never been a job to begin with”. The job was helping people with disabilities.

The lack of intellectual rigor in an attempt to reset the global trading system and valuation of the dollar is what’s truly troubling about all of this. It’s all ad-hoc absent any substantive strategy. #Econ #Econsky

Welcome back Lawrence O’DONNELL. You have been missed

Now that I am finished screaming into the void about schooling for kids with disabilities being assigned to RFK: understand what this means. He’s lumping accommodations into HHS, meaning those needs are now considered medicalized. Different from everyday education. This is eugenics.

A woman with an undisclosed measles infection gave birth in a TX hospital and exposed newborn infants as well as staff and visitors. www.nbcnews.com/health/healt...

I’m amazed how little coverage this story has gotten. They’ve burned well over $16 million to briefly hold 290 immigrants and several photo ops to GITMO. Just a total train wreck and they didn’t even mention it officially. Check out my latest. open.substack.com/pub/fpwellma...

"Economists at JPMorgan Chase said Monday that the risk of a recession had edged up to 40% from 30% owing to 'extreme U.S. policies'.” 'This is very much a man-made situation,' said the chief investment officer at Key Private Bank." www.wsj.com/economy/trum...

To be clear: a tariff is a tax.

USDA has eliminated two food safety advisory committees for microbiological contamination and meat inspection. Most recently, they had been reviewing regulatory approaches in response to the fatal Listeria outbreak from Boar’s Head meats and fatal Cronobacter contamination in powdered infant formula

“Scientists are already considering moving trials to other institutions, which will mean veterans are no longer first in line for participation, and could cause millions of dollars in research funds to go to waste…” www.nytimes.com/2025/03/09/u...

Trump: “I think I’ve been very tough on Russia. Tougher than anybody” (He hasn’t) Trump: “Russia Russia Russia was a hoax” (it wasn’t)

For those asking, “Why don’t republicans push back?” Here’s your answer. Speak up, and MAGA/Elon will send the worst types of people on the internet after you. “…they are intimidated by the prospect of online attacks from Mr. Trump and Elon Musk… and frightened for the safety of their families.”
